Asteroid belt

Planet Earth represents Great Britain. The moon is Greenland because it is very close but it does not have what we are looking for (profit). The East Indies is the Main Asteroid belt because it has many resources but it is very difficult to get to. Then there is Mars which represents America. At first, most view it as dense wilderness not fit to be inhabited. Later it is considered a land full of promise. Will the Future…

Modeling Periodic Phenomena: The Orbit of Mars Introduction Billions of years old, Mars is the 4th planet from the sun in our solar system and the last of the terrestrial planets before the asteroid belt. The planet neighbors Earth and has seen a plethora of exploration craft from our planet. Mars orbits around the Sun on an ellipse, as dictated by Kepler’s laws (which state that all orbits are ellipses). Mars’ elliptical shape is a lot less circular than Earth, due to its high orbital…

Alien anatomy Howling in pain, The Kraythonian staggered into the surgery clutching his upper right arm with upper and lower left hands. Dr Carl Peters slipped on the translator headset. His speech needed to be precise, clear, un-rushed. Miss-translation could have unfortunate consequences. "Hello sir. What appears to be the problem?" A wall-mounted speaker bellowed grunts and gargles, an interpretation of Dr Peter's words in Kraythonian tongue. The Kraythonian barked and growled a response,…

I understand this question to suggest that knowledge is produced mainly to solve problems, there are other reasons why it is produced. Knowledge, for this question, is a rational belief that is assimilated through education, experience or investigation, which then can be shared through language. To solve a problem, I understand it to be processing through a problem’s details to come up with a logical solution. My thesis agrees that although the title suggests the main reason knowledge is…

Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun with the largest ring system, which makes it one of the most easily identified planet for stargazers (figure 1). How Saturn got these fascinating rings around it is still a mystery to scientists today. There are many theories that will be discussed in this paper, but it is possible that no one could ever really know for sure. However, Saturn is not the only planet with a ring system, there are a few others but nothing as extravagant as what Saturn has.…

In the year 1935 Edwin Hubble discovered the 1373 Cincinnati, which is a main belt asteroid. Another great accomplishment of Edwin Hubble is his book ‘The Realm of The Nebulae,’ published in 1936. His book goes further into detail about his law and more astronomical findings. His work let him obtain an award called the American Association…

I have been born 3 times. The first time was 13.8 billion years ago, when the universe began to exist. The second time was on November 24, 1997, when my mother brought her second child into the world. The third time I was born, and the time most relevant to this discussion, was on a sweaty afternoon in Sophomore year when a girl asked me for bus money, and I decided it was time I learned to accept the first two. So here I am, made up of atoms that are 13.8 billion years old, a body almost 19…

Knowledge is one of the most powerful qualities known to man. People around the world desire to be smarter than the next due to their thirst for intelligence. As a proud nation, America is no exception. From the revolutionary war to the ongoing international affairs, they have had a strong will to be the absolute best at everything. Space exploration is one of the many possible routes that can be taken to reach that desire. Substantial funding for NASA would allow them to create space…

Ta-Nehisi Coates’ epistolary Between the World and Me has become a literary symbol for the Black Lives Matter Movement. Structurally, Between the World and Me is a direct descendant of The Fire Next Time; both texts were written as letters to male heirs and released at pivotal points in their respective Black social movements. Drawing on the literary legacies of the Wright school of naturalism and the Black Arts Movement, Coates’ work occupies a space between the two. However, Between the World…
